They begin again

No PPR

Pick 2

R White v PHI
R Mostert v DEN
K Williams @ CIN

Leaning towards White and Mostert but Williams might go big again, especially if Burrow is out.

I like Mostert and Williams.

Since I have the same question as last week I'm just gonna repost this one with some alterations.

Have Lockett in there now. If early results indicate anything then looks like B-Rob is the lead back for WFT and he could be a good volume play, though that Denver D sure didn't seem bothered by Jacobs slow him down at all last week.

PPR, 8 team league, who would you put in the flex:

G.Wilson
N Harris
G. Pickens
Ford
Moss
C. Watson



Also, ehm, who would you drop for a kicker?

Half PPR, pick 3

Mattison vs LAC
Conner vs DAL
White vs PHI
Ford vs TEN

I'm a bit surprised the experts on fantasypros have them in this order above. Must be a matchup decision? I'm a Vikings fan and Mattison has certainly not impressed.

Welp, we just traded for Akers so Mattison is a big question mark for me now. He was my keeper too. Only an 8th rounder luckily.

Mattison: bad RB gonna be bad against even the chargers
Conner: flash in the pan against the giants, won’t produce against the cowboys
White: decent; the Eagles had a good run D against the Pats (probably not very good) and Vikings (good offense + bad rb, see above) so take from that what you will
Ford: not Chubb, against a run defense which beat the Chargers (Ekeler injured) and Saints (not all that great)

Personally, I’d go Ford or White

E: oops, pick 3. Uhhh Mattison for 3rd?

Akers signing with the Vikings probably doesn't impact Mattison at all this week except maybe make him mentally stronger and rise to the threat of being demoted?!

Help me choose 2 .5 PPR flexes

Brian Robinson vs BUF
Jerome Ford vs TEN
Joshua Kelley @ MIN
Nico Collins @ JAX

Currently have the first two slotted in

Worried a bit about Ford since the Titans shut down the Chargers run game last week

And Kelley will probably have an easier go of it against the Vikings

And Nico looks legit

I picked up Hunter Hearst Henry since he was available but I also have Kittle. So,

No PPR
Kittle vs NYG (tonight)
Henry @ NYJ

I'm leaning Henry because Kittle hasn't done anything so far this year and is getting fewer targets. But I still want to believe Kittle is DSYS.

So are people sitting or starting Mattison?

I’ve got Rachaad White and James Connor as my two staring RBs (.5 PPR). ESPN has Mattison projected to score better than either one, but I won’t believe it until I see it.

I’ve also got D. Swift in at flex. So basically, which one do I not start?:

Mattison
Connor
White
Swift

May be not given a choice in the end due to injuries but full PPR:

Flex: Garrett Wilson vs NE against Tutu Atwell @ Cincinatti against Miles Sanders @ SEA (leaning Atwell but if ASB or Burrow don't play I'll just have to put up what I can, I'm not playing Tee Higgins without Burrow)

QB: Brock Purdy vs Giants against Jordan Love vs NO (could also pick up Geno Smith, CJ Stroud, Mac Jones or Daniel Jones)

Personally would go Connor or White. Really tough matchups (Eagles for White and Cowboys for Connor) and I doubt White will do what he did against the Bears again anytime soon. If I had to choose one, probably Connor I mean the Cowboys defense has been utterly dominant so far, Connor isn't particularly fast so if the Cowboys are dominating at the line of scrimmage seems like he's gonna have a tough day.

Also big thanks to MakaVillain for pointing me towards the ACTUAL sit start thread lol

J. Kelley LAC @ Min

J. Conner Ari v Dal

Leaning Kelley and Walker since Dallas seems legit vs RB

Walker is an every week starter, dont have to ask about him.

Guess I'd use Kelley purely based on matchups.

Ugggggggh do I really dare start Danny Dimes tonight @ SF? NY is going to get obliterated. On the other hand I don't really have a bench spot to add a streamer, I would have to drop a useful asset. Waivers are nasty. I could potentially pick up

Stafford @ CIN
Russ @ MIA
Goff vs ATL
Howell vs Buf
Love vs NO
Stroud @ JAX

I have the same situation with WR and TE: currently starting LaPorta vs Falcons over Waller but will probably waffle before the game tonight. You could make a case that he may still put up 5 or so points against SF, and will probably be Jones’ panic target most of the game.

I have Atwell and Wilson too, and I have Wilson in since he’s good for a big reception once or twice, and that’s all you really need. Still waiting another week to start Atwell to see if he’s more consistent

Think I'd go Stafford or Goff. Yeah you're giving up the ground game but I think fred warner and Co can put a lid on that and Jones will probably fumble or throw picks or both. Stafford has played great but there's been a lot of touchdown vulturing from the ground game, eventually that will change.

I kinda have a similar issue, narrowed down to Purdy or Stafford or Jones. Probably sticking with Purdy because I think he'll have a huge game and won't miss as many big plays as last week

I’d leave White out. That defense is serious.

Mattison has disappointed so far, his OL is busted, and Minnesota will have to throw a lot. BUT he’s getting the opportunities and the two defenses he’s faced so far are strong against the run. I don’t think he’s ever gonna be an elite rb but I think he’s gonna be better than he has been and a solid flex / low rb2

Stafford imo. He's due for a three touchdown passing day just gotta hope the defense doesn't let Kyren Williams score so often. Or Stroud could be okay as well except the Jax defense may be good, kinda hard to tell at this point.

I hate the matchup against San Francisco for Daniel.. Yeah he will have to throw but he's not good at throwing. His best fantasy value is on the ground and I just think SF can stop that part of his game effectively.

I'm still analalysize paralasize with Hunter Henry and Waller. Waller will get a lot of targets this evening but will that actually translate into points? is the question. Henry seems like the easy choice in my mind but then every resource out there including Yahoo seems to prefer Waller

I recognize TNF already started.

I feel your dilemma I’m starting Henry. I picked him up because he gets a nice 7 targets a game and seems to be a priority end zone target.

A part of my brain doesn’t want to get the TE of that pats offense led by Mac Jones, but Henry has been good and consistent so far.

Yeah I'm feeling alright about it right now considering that the second quarter is more than halfway done and Waller doesn't have a single target

Sometimes there are gross situations that you just have to lean into. Hunter Henry is one of those. The Pats suck rear end, they have no receivers, he is their #1 pass catcher. He will probably finish as a *throws dice* top 6 TE. If you got him in a late round or off waivers, you are winning.

I very much want to go back in time and draft him instead of Kyle Pitts in the one league where I did that

If you’re rostering Hill just roll with him imo. Lottery ticket sort of game and if you’re not using him the week before Kamara then what’s the point.

The game script tells me Fields could be throwing a lot but, uh, that doesn’t always register as a good thing unfortunately.
